This theme has no mandatory JavaScript. Optionally, it can load a minimal amount to add some features that are impossible to achieve with HTML and CSS.

Globally enabled settings

The light/dark mode switch can be enabled by setting theme_switcher = true in the [extra] section of your config.toml (~900 bytes of JavaScript).

Settings that can be enabled globally and for individual posts

The following settings can be enabled globally for all pages or specifically for individual posts:

• KaTeX support. Enabled by setting katex = true (274 KB).
• One-click copy of code blocks. Enabled by setting copy_button = true. (~700 bytes)
• Footnote backlinks. Enabled by setting footnote_backlinks = true (~500 bytes).

To enable these settings globally, add them in the [extra] section of your config.toml file. To enable for individual posts, set the corresponding variables in the [extra] section of the post's front matter.

• Comments. giscus (2 KB), utterances (1 KB), Hyvor Talk (~800 bytes) or Isso (1KB) can be globally enabled by setting enabled_for_all_posts = true in the right section of your config.toml (i.e. [extra.giscus], [extra.utterances], [extra.hyvortalk] or [extra.isso]). To enable comments on individual posts, set the name of the system = true (e.g. hyvortalk = true) in the post's front matter.

Other than that, it's a fast theme with HTML and CSS which works with JavaScript disabled. Just the way (most of) the web should be :-)
